Like many companies these days, we're looking to reduce our expenses. With the hot weather almost here in the Chicago area, I'm being asked to up the thermostat in our server room, to allow it to get warmer and thus save some money. We have been keeping the temperature around the mid 70's, and I'm concerned about higher temps in the server room causing servers to crash or at least reduce their lifetime. What od you think is the maximum operating temperature for a room with servers? We humans are not in the room that often, so it's strictly a case of a safe temperature for the hardware. There's no need to determine how many servers I have or how large the room is, just the temperature necessary to safely operate servers.
